a Plausible Explanation OF John Sher-

Is it conceivable that within ten
days of each other the two subjoined
expressions of political sentiment pro-
ceeded from the accommodating
larnyx of Hon. John Sherman, of
Ohio? Yet such is the fact. The first
is from Mr.. Sherman's reply to the in-
vitation to go to Gettysburg. The
second is from his letter congratu-
lating Foraker on his action III the
matter of the battle flags:

The honest fellow feels and he feels.
Some days he feels one way; some days
the other way.
But on all days of the week, and at
all hours of the day, John Sherman
feels that he is getting pretty well
along in years, and that 1888 is his last
chance.
Whatever apparent Inconsistency
there may be in some of his utterances,
the real platform on which honest John
Sherman is running for President is

A Mandan correspondent of the Chica,

A Mandan correspondent OF the Chicago
Tribune claims to have had an interview
with Charles B. Wright. of the Northern Pa.
ciic directory. in which he quotes that gen
tleman as declaring that at the September
meeting Colonel Lamborn, the present
Land Commissioner, would be retired and
q man put in who will more completely rep.
resent the prevailing idea OF the discon-
tented stockholders. In their opinion the
land policy OF the road should be much
more liberal to the actual settler thai it
is at present." We happen to know the
fact that Colonel Lamborn has had a more
liberal policy than he has ever been able to
carry out on count of the contracted
views OF the directory, OF which Mr.. Wright
is a member. Mr.. Wright has had no OBJ
ject in view SO far other than to secure the
building Of the Cascade division, and this
because he owned the townsite of Tacoma.
Had Col. Lamborn been allowed to carry
out his own ideal policy and that OF Presi-
dent Cakes the territory adjacent to the
transcontinental line would have been
settled more densely than it is now, and
the company would nave had a better car
rying trade from intermediate to
terminal points han it now enjoys. Mr..
Wright's structures on the and policy of
the company are well grounded, but the
fault lies with the directory of which he is
a member, and not with Col. Lamborn,
than whom there is not Il more able, liber-
al or progressive land agent in the country.

Notwithstanding the frantic denials of the
Dominion authorities that there is any
trouble threatened in the Northwest Terri
tories, the facts warrant a contrary con-
clusion. A Winnipeg special says: "E
Troop of the ounted police, consisting
OF sixty men, which was stationed at Du.
more, N. w. T., and expecting orders to
proceed to the Kootenai district in British
Columbia, were ordered to 60 to Swift Cur
rent, where they have arrived, and are
awaiting reinforcements." That there
is great discomfort among the restless red
skins in the Northwest territories cannot
he questioned. The movements of the
mounted police and the denials OF the gov
eminent are ample proof OF this. Our own
authorities should take cognizance of the
situation for if the Indians are hard pressed
they will raid across the line in Northern
Montana and make trouble for settlers on
thiss side. We have quite enough to do to
discipline our own wards without being
forced to look after our neighbours on the
other side. Should they take refuge on our
soil, they should at once be sent back un.
der escort as our experience with the ref
ueee Crees has not been a pleasant one. 1t
was necessary to make a legislative appro-
priation to feed and clothe them and to
provide a force to keep them out of mis-.

General Lester g. Wilson, of Bozeman
one Of the most conservative and substan.
tial citizens of the Territory. says there il
no doubt but the Butte & Buzeman Short
Line will be built. Nelson Storey,
one of the ~wealthiest and also most
conservative Montanians, y the
same thing, and he is ready to
contribute his full share OF the money to
make the enterprise an assured success.
Butte's capitalists and business men mean
business, and will see that the scheme is
carried out to a successful conclusion. The
surveys are already we'll advanced and the
work of construction will undoubtedly be
commenced this season. But little time
will be lost in making alliances with either
present or prospective companies in the
Territory. Immediate and direct connec
ton between the two cities is too import
ant to admit of delay from any causes.

The Mormons nave experienced a quick
ening OF conscience on the statehood ques
ton in Utah, under the impulse Of legisla.
ton hostile to polygamy. Feeling that
they have a popular majority in the Terri
tory OF Utah. they would divest themselves
OF all federal restraints and become a law
unto themselves. A call has been issued at
Salt Lake for a convention of the Peoples
party" to select delegates to a proposed
constitutional convention. Like the life
they live there seems to be an indecent
haste to have the convention meet. for the
date is fixed so early as June 30. To give
a semblance OF fairness and imparriality to
the scheme. all parties are invited to parti.
cipate in the proceedings. There must be
some great emergency to meet that so little
notice OF the convention is given. The Gen.
tiles will look sharply after this movement,
which bodies no good to the Territory.
There is some sinister end to be subserved.

The cattle mea Of Texas. who seem

The cattle men OF Texas, who seem to
think that they own the earth and would
have the same fenced at the public expense,
are raising a howl at the action of the de,
partment opening up certain lands in Col
orado and Nebraska to settlement. Let
them learn the lesson what last winter
taught the cattle men of Montana, and
that is that they must not have n more
stock on hand than they can care for
without depending upon driving them upon
ranges to which they have no claim as
against actual settlers or even Indian res
'ervations. The plan of holding large herds
or ranges likely any season to be short
from lack OF rain or other causes, must be
abandoned in the southwest as well as in
this Territory, and the sooner the cattle
barons of Texas learn this fact and adopt
it, the better it will be for them.

It seems clear that Adjutaat Genera
Drum inspired the President to order tn.
return OF the rebel battle flags. Had this
happy thought occurred to him during the
Grant regime and the great General had
acquiesced in it, not q discordant note
would have been heard from the politica.
bugles of the country. And it can but be
admitted that the order would have beer
more appropriate coming from Grant. Fol
Cleveland to promulgate it was not popu'
lar. 1t gave the opposition the opportuni
ty sought to criticise his course and to
food the country with clap-trap %haranguee
and resolutions for mere political effect.
We are glad that he has promptly revoked
the order and disarmed the criticism ever
of bitter partisans. We trust that
he will now muzzle General Drum and all
such foolish advisers.

Now, that the Northwestern has resolved
to extend its system into Montana at
once, there can be no doubt but that the
Milwaukee 4 St. Paul and the Rock Island
will extend their Dakota systems west of
the Missouri river with all possible dis.
patch. That they should follow the North
western to the Pacific coast is only a ques-
ton OF time. Montana will have the
benefits OF the competition of these trans
continental lines, as her resources are too
great to be ignored. Butte and Anaconda
being the center of the coming trade of the
Territory. will enjoy the benefits of the
competition that will come from them.
The builders Of the Butte and Bozeman

1t is beginning to dawn upon certain in.
terests that the capitalists of Butte and
Bozeman mean business in the i%ncorpora-

enterprise that will no longer admit of de.
lay in active measures for it's success. There
is no doubt that it will be built whether
any alliances are formed with other corpo.
~rations or not. 1t is a matter of necessity.
The movement cannot be stayed In it's
progress. The men of means of both cities
have decreed that they shall have u closer
alliance. They are natural allies and de-
sire to do business with each other. They
are able to build the road themselves and
have resolved to do it if necessary.

The Late Henry MOrier's Will.

We are advised ON good authority
that the correspondent of The MINER at
Dillon was in error in stating that Henry
Morier before he died made a will leaving
his daughters SIS each. The will he made
left his entire property 10 his brother with
out mention OF his children. On the au-
thoritv of his executor, Bassette, it is sta
ted that he changed his mind before he
died and would have made another will
leaving his daughters $500 zach and the
remainder to his son, but died before his
des;g n could be carried out.
